Elijah. Man of Courage, Man of Faith, Man of God.

DAY 14 OF 22

God speaks in a quiet voice Elijah had witnessed God’s supernatural intervention when the ravens fed him, the flour and oil were not spent, the widow’s son was raised from the dead and a totally drenched sacrifice was burned up by heavenly fire. So, when God was going to meet him, Elijah probably expected some dramatic natural phenomenon. And indeed, God sent a great wind, an earthquake and a fire, but the Lord was not in any of these. He came in “the sound of a low whisper”. Maybe this was God’s way to show Elijah that He can work in different ways. During Elijah’s life, God had shown His power supernaturally. Now it was time to appoint a new prophet and two kings, under whose reign the people’s worship of Baal would receive the final blow — not through God’s supernatural intervention, but through normal human policies. God’s influence would be hardly visible to natural eyes, but just as powerful as it had been in Elijah’s day. All through the Bible, we read how God can use both natural and supernatural means to accomplish His will. Can you list more examples of both?
